Los demás hechos de Asa y todo su poderío, todo lo que hizo y las ciudades que edificó, ¿no están escritos en el libro de las Crónicas de los reyes de Judá? Sólo que en el tiempo de su vejez se enfermó de los pies.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
The rest of all the acts of Asa, and all his might, and all that he did, and the cities which he built, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?.... Some of which are to be met with in the canonical book of that name, 2 Chronicles 14:1, and others in the annals of the kings, out of which the Scripture account was taken:
nevertheless, in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet; seized with the gout, as the Jews say a, and which was two years before his death, see 2 Chronicles 16:12.
a T. Bab. Sanhedrin, fol. 48. 2. So Clemens of Alexandria, Stromat. l. 1. p. 326.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The rest of all the acts of Asa - A few of these are preserved in 2 Chronicles 15:9-15; 2 Chronicles 16:7-12. From the whole narrative of Chronicles we gather that the character of Asa deteriorated as he grew old, and that, while he maintained the worship of Yahweh consistently from first to last, he failed to maintain the personal faith and piety which had been so conspicuous in his early youth.
The cities which he built - Asa, during the earlier part of his reign, before any serious attack had been made upon him, had the prudence to “build fenced cities in Judah,†with “walls and towers, gates and bars,†so strengthening himself against a possible evil day 2 Chronicles 14:6-7.
In the time of his old age - See the marginal reference. If it has been rightly supposed that Rehoboam was a young man of 21 or 22 at his accession 1 Kings 12:8, Asa’s age at this time must have been less than 50. It may seem strange to speak of “old age†in such a case; but Solomon was regarded as “old†at about 50 (1 Kings 11:4 note).
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 23. And the cities which he built — Such as Geba and Mizpah, which he built out of the spoils of Ramah.
He was diseased in his feet. — Probably he had a strong rheumatic affection, or the gout. This took place in the thirty-ninth year of his reign, three years before his death; and it is said that he sought to physicians rather than to the Lord, 2 Chronicles 16:12-13.
